The Dream Synopsis is an extended play by English supergroup the Last Shadow Puppets, released on 2 December 2016 by Domino Recording Company. It was produced by Patrick Higgins in Hudson, New York and contains re-recordings of two songs from the band's second album, Everything You've Come to Expect, as well as four cover versions that the band played during their 2016 tour. The album artwork features a still picture of the band recording the music video for their cover of "Is This What You Wanted". It was the final release of the band's second period of activity.

The lead single, a cover of Leonard Cohen's "Is This What You Wanted" was released on 17 October with an accompanying music video directed by Ben Chappell and Aaron Brown. It features the band performing the track live on a sound stage.
On 14 November they released a music video, directed by Ben Chapell, for their rendition of Jacques Dutronc's "Les Cactus". Once again the band appears performing the song live at a music studio.
Their next video, a cover Glaxo Babies's "This Is Your Life", was released on 5 December and followed the formula of the previous ones, with the band performing the song live on a catwalk.




Reception



For The Skinny, Aidan Ryan wrote, "these six songs hang together with a real emotional coherence. Turner is in top form, Kane’s vocals have never sounded more outrageously appropriate, and The Last Shadow Puppets do what they do best: ham it up so much – and so well – that you might just might believe that they're deadly serious." Matt Collar of AllMusic said, "the covers here are so confidently performed and arranged that they sound close to definitive," and thought the EP complemented Everything You've Come to Expect, functioning "as a swaggering coda to that recording, a kind of final summation of the full-length album's arty, hedonistic theatricality."
